The Mighty Augusta Ceili Band!
If you’re planning on taking the Ceili Band mini-class at the Augusta Irish/Celtic Week this summer, you’re going to want to keep your eye on this page because this is where I’ll be posting some of the repertory we’ll be covering! Below, please find a selection of tunes. By clicking on a tune’s title, you can listen to a short, no frills, very slow and even recording of it. Underneath a tune’s title, you’ll find two links, one that will let you download an MP3 of the tune and another to download a notated version of the tune as a PDF. (To download, either Right Click [if you’re on a PC] or control-click [if you’re a Mac user] and then save the link to your computer.)
I will add to this selection periodically, but we’ll also build repertory during Irish/Celtic Week in July.
If you’re interested in registering for the week, please click here to visit the official Augusta Irish/Celtic webpage. Keep up with updates and additions to this page by liking our Facebook page, which you can find by clicking here.

Dan: Are these for 2014?

Pat, I haven’t added any tunes for 2014 yet. However, when I do (which will happen shortly), I’ll put a “(2014)” next to them so it’s clear what’s what.
